We have rented in Rhode Island for years, adjusting each year for our family's needs. This house is by far the best we have ever encountered. The location of the house is close enough to walk to the beach, and the rental includes a beach cart, chairs, umbrellas, and boogie boards for use during our stay. The appliances are new, functioning, and standard size which made preparing meals enjoyable. The hosts thought of every eventuality when outfitting the kitchen, with place settings for eight people and every kitchen tool a family would need. The layout of the house is airy and open, the furniture was comfortable, and the decorations were aesthetically pleasing. One of the best aspects of the rental is that it was PRISTINELY clean when we arrived and there was a lovely welcome bag for us waiting. The owner is friendly, responsive, and while he lives next door, he is not intrusive at all. We had a wonderful vacation and will be back!
